I was running my laptop on battery, and gnome-power-manager displayed a
message saying that power was critically low and the system would soon
shut down. "No problem," I thought, "I'll just suspend so I don't lose
my place in my work." So I clicked on suspend from the menu that appears
when you click the user switch applet in the upper right. My system
suspended fine. Later, I plugged my laptop in and opened the lid --
notice that I plugged in the laptop BEFORE resuming. After resuming, my
laptop immediately shutdown.

Explanation: When gnome-power-manager gave me the message, it either had
already issued the shutdown command or was about to. So when I clicked
suspend, I was suspending the laptop *in the middle of the shutdown
process*. This plain shouldn't be able to happen. Suspend requests in
the middle of shutting down should be ignored and vice versa. If a power
user has a legitimate reason for wanting to suspend in the middle of the
shutdown process, they can do some from the command line, it shouldn't
be the default.
